Root access for setting file permissions

Is there a method for getting root (or equivalent) access? It seems that "admin" user does not have sufficient permissions to set ownership on files and directories.

My goal is to be able to set permissions, so if you know how to do that I would appreciate help.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Root access for setting file permissions

since you cant make a group of "root" and each user when creating files gets perms of username.group - the only way around this is to chmod the files:

chown -R username.group /path
this will change ownership on /path and everything below it

another method is change the file permissions

chmod -R 777 /path
will give read/write/execute on those files.
